_________________________

Eek! Guess what? Aliens have invaded and only you can save the world from misery and damnation. In the guise of Captain Cosmose, you must work your way through this horizontally-scrolling platform cum shoot-'em-up blasting away at the little alien baddies and avoiding their shots. Moving around is mostly left-right with short and long jumps to enable you to hop between platforms or across gaps.
Every hit the aliens make reduces your energy bar, which can be topped up by grabbing potions.
Not a bad game, it looks and sounds all right and it'll take a while to work through four levels: but it's simple and adds nothing new to this genre of game.
